five years later and it’s still crazy to realize that kobe isn’t here anymore. a lot of folks from my generation are still processing his passing because it’s arguably the most impactful from someone of his magnitude. we literally grew up watching kobe, was inspired by him, and yelled his name after tough shot we took. long live the mamba. always and forever 🐍🏆 #kobebryant #longlivekobe #memory #perspective #2025
